Kuumapurkistus
Kuumapurkistus, also known as hot filling, is a food preservation technique used to extend the shelf life of liquid or semi-liquid food products. This method involves filling containers, such as glass jars or bottles, with a product that has been heated to a specific high temperature, typically above 85 degrees Celsius (185 degrees Fahrenheit).
